Being a long time listener of omnic lab and a Georgia boy I started listening to this podcast because of Andreas, but I stayed and now enjoy this podcast for and because of bob. He’s a great positive influence and role model in the community, as well as providing insightful (yet biased) commentary and insight and someone who I look up to. Keep up the good work guys.

I've been listening to this podcast since season 1 of OWL and I really enjoy it. This might also be one of the most biased podcasts but that's what makes it unique. the fact that all three of you guys are all such big fans of your favorite teams and protect them whenever someone makes fun of them is great. although idk if you can consider Andres a super fan of ATL since you guys said he has like 6 favorite teams lol I also don't know who gets more mad when you make fun of their team, Mel or Bob lol I look forward to listening to you guys in season 3 of OWL

Great Hosts with Variety
OWL Recap is such a fun listen. Going over the previous week of OWL games is always entertaining knowing how competitive the league is. Hearing the difference of opinions on OWL Recap is the best bc games are so split second theres a multitude of ways to speculate. Sometimes there are surprise guests that go through a mini interview which is also fantastic. Keep up the good work as always, and if you made it this far Poko is my daddy go Fusion.

Just doesn’t vibe with me
So I love overwatch and follow the league as much as I can through social media, articles, and podcasts. Something about this podcast in particular felt a bit off. The last episode felt very disconnected as there were unusually long pauses or topics too weak to give an immediate answer. I understand that doing a straight and live podcast can be difficult but I felt that last week’s topics had a lot of substance but barely grazed the surface for me. Another thing that sort of irked me was when Bob talked about Luffy’s pronunciation and why it should’ve been spelt with 2 “O”s. He probably got his name from the anime “One Piece” where the main character is named “Luffy” with the same pronunciation. While I’ve done my own research on the origins of his handle, I can’t confirm that to be the case however, each player has a deep connection to the handle they choose, like the infamous Carpe Diem story. Anyways I’m rambling, I may be a bit too critical for now but I’m sure you will improve for the weeks to come. Keep it up as I’ll continue to listen.

Great review of what is going on in OWL
Discovered this podcast a month ago and it has quickly become my favorite OWL podcast. Great recap of the past week's matches and news. Easy for beginners to understand even. Love that Mel is an Outlaws fan like me.

eSports Radio at its finest
As a fan of the Overwatch league, it was an absolute dream come true to find this as I mowed lawns during the summer. Hosts are knowledgeable and energetic and let me see the game from someone else’s eyes. All my friends have gone over to fortnite as of late, so I have nobody to talk overwatch with anymore. Now, a podcast can never substitute for a face-to-face conversation, but this podcast still lets me get my fix of analysis, humor, news, and strategy.

One of my 2 favorite podcasts.
I've listened since the beginning from their sister show: Omnic Lab. I love following the Overwatch League and they give me just the right amount of info, even if they forget some of the highlights from the LA Valiant. ;) Love the crew.

Great show!
Great show! Very knowledgeable casters, good insight, good commentary, I just want to see them reviewing the games more in depth, kind of like sportscasters do on espn and what not, but a minor complaint. I sent an email complaining a few weeks ago about the lack of coverage of day 2 of the Grand finals, but otherwise, this is a great show. To the guy complaining about Fortnite hating, that just makes me like the show more. Long live overwatch.

Confused
Why are you guys trying to bring down fortnite? It’s success can only help overwatch. I’m having a hard time listening to you guys talk so much about fortnite from a uneducated and biased point of view. You guys are bringing down e-sports. Step it up and just talk about what you know and love, OW. 30 minutes of talking about how fortnites just a fad and won’t go anywhere. Focus on OW problems, such as how the game isn’t fun to watch because they switch cameras every 5 seconds. Talk about how the league plays for 15 minutes then takes a 10 minutes commercial break with no commercials. Watching fortnite streamers is more fun the OWL, OWL should let you pick who to watch, as a d.va main id love to just watch d.vas and maybe her counters, I can get the wife and fam to watch Friday night fortnite comps but can’t get them to enjoy OWL, too confusing and they switch characters too much. All I’m saying is maybe learn from fortnites success and figure out how to apply it to OWL instead of ignorantly hating on the incredible game. I’ve played 10x more OW then Fortnite but you guys went to hard on it on the last episode it was really hard to listen to.

Amazing
Andres, Mel, and Blazin Bob are the best hosts ever. All of them are freaking awesome and funny. Whenever I have a sucky day at school I’ll listen to this podcast and it always makes my day. Thanks for the awesome content and thanks for putting in so much time and effort for the fans. Love you OWL recap. (>◡<) Keep up the good work.

Solid, Short, Fun
I've been really enjoying this show recently. Great work put in by the hosts to make the show feel different than other OWL coverage and try to actively make it something meaningful with discussions that don't overlap too much with major news sources on the league.

Don't get it
I don't understand these 1-star ratings. These guys are legit. Don't lose hope Andres, Bob and Justin. You guys are doing great!

The Professionals of Overwatch League Podcasts
One of the top Overwatch League podcasts. Great commentators that are knowledgeable of the game and the League. Andres is great in his host deubt, @blazzinbob best co-host in the game rn, Justin is a great addition to the crew.

Uninformed nobodies.
I am an avid podcast listener with over 50 podcasts that I listen to each week. I don't ever leave reviews but I was so disappointed after listening to their most recent episode I felt obligated to share how I feel while attempting to be as objective as possible. First let me say that there is nothing wrong with 3 guys talking about Overwatch League with no particularly meaningful knowledge on the subject. Podcasts are indeed for everyone to create and kudos to these 3 friends for creating something about something they love. If that's what you're looking for in an Overwatch League podcast, then I'm sure you'll like this one fine. The audio quality is sub-par, but bass heavy and lacks proper treatment of highs, specifically sybilences. These guys were clearly so caught up in getting that "radio DJ" sound that they drowned the highs out of their voice. It's a nitpick and far from the worst sounding podcast out there - but I think constructively this should be improved. This is where I will do my best to stay as constructive as possible, though I may not have a solution for every problem I perceive. The first is how the show is positioned. Each of the hosts, while not particularly charming, are likeable enough. However, none of them is qualified to speak with a dependable voice about Overwatch League. You have to start somewhere, right? That's all fine until they start speaking about these topics like they have anything more than a gut feeling about the subject. There are no statistics, none of them are particularly well-connected in the scene (though the podcast does leech off of its existing Omnic Lab fan-base which is positioned for the player who wants to learn to get better but doesn't effectively know all that much - which ends up being a dangerous crossover). The main host isn't a particularly good one at getting the others to speak up, and the others aren't particularly good at interjecting their opinions which leads to an awful lot of awkward silences. The show is only a month old, so I anticipate it can get better, but currently it is not good. I like Bob. I genuinely do. Minus the vaping on their live stream, I think he epitomizes professionalism and as someone who has followed his other shows it is clear he makes a concious effort to be informed, engaging, and to invest into their community. He's got a ways to go, but after listening to him for the past year, it's clear he's invested at getting better. Andres seems like a really cool person you could hang out with. I believe he used to do music production or something. I haven't seen him try to get better though. This isn't a personal attack on anyone, but I do not believe this to be a good show. Their recap shows are just one of the hosts reading off a kill feed. None of the hosts have put in the time or effort to make their opinions more definitive and do very little to back up their claims. Their interviews are bland and lack meaningful questions. Most of the answers to the questions they give can be found in other places. I feel bad being harsh, and I will gladly amend my review if/as things change. This just seems like a podcast where some guys who were good at doing one thing decided to do another on a fling and have spread themselves too thin. I think they should stop trying to be something they're not and just be some cool dudes who want to chat about Overwatch League among friends and not try to position themselves as a real resource for Overwatch League fans. All the best, Philip

Must listen for any overwatch fan
I’m a big fan of the other podcast Omnic Lab and this show keeps up the great work. It really goes in depth on all the owl league games in a very enjoyable way. Can’t wait to hear more.

Great Show and Awesome Hosts!
These three guys have awesome guests on and always make me look at Overwatch League topics and news in a different perspective. It’s entertaining, an easy listen and quick. I really appreciate the fact that I get everything in 15-20 minutes that I need to know so I’m not stuck watching 6 hours of games every night. Love the podcast keep up all of the great work and don’t listen to the one-star reviews, people be toxic!!

Great for OWL fans
I often dont have time to watch OWL matches, read into rosters, and get the latest OWL news. WIth this podcast I get the full scoop on all the news I need from a group of hosts that keep me engaged for the entire episode. A great community also surrounds this podcast with great host interaction and and even better conversations going on revolving aroud OWL.

The Bob, The Master, The Juston
The three muskateers(spelling is stupid ok don't make fun of me) are at it again. Don't listen to the other reviews. Its just a jerk being toxic on all OWL podcasts. This is a great cast. I have not been listening to it a lot but it is great. BlazzinBob has been on 2 other podcasts(WPR and Prepare to Attack) and is a great person. Same with Andreas and Juston. OWL is a growing phenominon(spelling but IDC) and this is a great stop to learn more and get a great source of news. Listen well fellow no lifes and Overwatch noobs. From, Squidzord(lul k bye cya)

Payload podcast is cool
The only place I get my League info
Love the show, love the guys.
Priestdrsgo
Skip this show.
The only reason this show was recommended to me was because the Omnic Lab guy was doing it. Well... That show is terrible and this one is too. OWL Network is much better.
outlaws_fan
booooooring.
the guys who host the show are boring and bland and i know more about overwatch then them.
notamercycarry
Really?
The good stuff: These guys are from Omnic Lab who are one of the few surviving Overwatch podcasts. That means they've got okay connections to bring on some cool guests like coaches and players. It's also pretty easy to listen to as it seeams the main guy can edit a podcast fairly well. That's where the good stuff ends. The hosts are mostly clueless. It's a bunch of armchair fans who are only there to talk about OWL because it's the hot topic right now. It's just 3 white guys making vague statements. You wont learn anything or glean new information if a guest isn't on. I'm sure the guys are nice guys, but they don't provide anything special with this show.
